As Lt. Aldo Raine, leader of a squad of a Jewish-American soldiers, Brad Pitt takes no prisoners—just scalps—in Quentin Tarantino’s genre-twisting, WWII revenge fantasy. As war rages in Europe, Raine and his company, known to their enemy as “The Basterds,” infiltrate German-occupied territory on a daring mission to take down the leaders of the Third Reich. The 2009 film was nominated for eight Academy Awards, including Best Picture and two nods to Tarantino for his original screenplay and direction. In his Hollywood film debut, Austrian Christoph Waltz won more than two dozen critics' and film festival awards including an Oscar, Golden Globe, and Best Actor honors at Cannes.
